The VancoFourSeason is Continental's Highway All-Season tire developed especially for vans and multi-purpose vehicles that transport heavy loads. Designed to blend light truck handling with year-round grip, the VancoFourSeason delivers all-season traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, even in light snow.
The VancoFourSeason molds an all-season light truck compound into a symmetric tread design that features interlocking shoulder blocks and center ribs to combine response, stability and driver comfort. Three circumferential grooves, lateral notches and multiple sipes help resist hydroplaning and aid foul-weather traction. The tire's structure includes an optimized belt contour to provide a stable ride and good treadwear.
VancoFourSeason tires are available in both traditional LT-metric sizes, in which the size begins with an "LT" (i.e. LT225/75R16) and Euro-metric Commercial sizes, in which the size ends with a "C" (i.e. 225/75R16C). LT-metric sizes have been used on the Dodge and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans while Euro-metric Commercial sized tires have been selected for Original Equipment use on the growing range of global cargo and passenger vans, beginning with the 2014 Ram Promaster and 2015 Ford Transit. In all cases, it is important to match the tire Load Index and Maximum Inflation Pressures with the vehicle's Original Equipment tires.

En cualquier caso, es importante igualar el Índice de Carga con la Presión Máxima de Inflado de los neumáticos originales del vehículo.

...In in the wet the Michelin PSS is also passing my tests with flying colors...
Michelin Pilot Super Sports on a Audi A3. Just a really brilliant tire. Very impressed with stability, steering input response and overall dry traction. In the wet the Michelin PSS is also passing my tests with flying colors. These tires replaced a set of all season Falken's. While the Ziex 912's are no slouch, they are easily outperformed by the PSS. It is no contest. If you want a summer tire for maximum performance, look no further than the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. You will not be disappointed.

...Then I took them to the autocross in the rain, and MY GOODNESS are they grippy - granted it was soaking wet - but that's what impressed me even more!...
I just got these tires about a week ago and the first time I drove my car with these tires, I immediately noticed how quiet and comfy they are (compared to the General Exclaim UHPs I had) I can actually hear wind noise now haha!
Then I took them to the autocross in the rain, and MY GOODNESS are they grippy - granted it was soaking wet - but that's what impressed me even more! I am yet to use them in a dry autocross event, but so far, it's looking promising.
I really can't comment too much on dry grip just yet but I've done some spirited driving on a mountain road, and I immediately felt a superb amount of stability and it definitely feels like i could push the car much much more.
Two thumbs up Michelin, I am thoroughly impressed. Please keep up the good work!

...These tires have excellent dry and wet traction and the cornering stability is like no other tire I have every used.
Have had these tires for just over 2 years and am retiring them at around 70,000km. I absolutely loved them. Excellent dry and wet traction and the cornering stability is like no other tire I have every used. Have had my car at 200 kph (124 mph) and the tires felt like I was going 100 kph (60 mph) it was so smooth. Going to replace these with the new Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 as they are a very similar tire.

...They provide excellent traction in wet and dry...
These are the best tires I've ever purchased. They provide excellent traction in wet and dry. They're quiet, which is very important to me as drive on the highway a lot. At about 5k miles, they are showing very little wear. They even look good on the car. Highly recommend this tire!

...Crisp cornering, braking... Same ramp, 62 degrees,,, all bite.
These tires as "as advertised". Kind of unbelievable they are not asking for more money. Crisp cornering, braking. I was driving a ramp rather spirited with my previous perellis(temp was about 65degrees) and I suddenly and unexpectedly slid, and corrected in time. Goodbye Pirelli's(that need warm up, and warm temps) hells SS. Same ramp, 62 degrees,,, all bite.

I've had several sets of different tires on the rear of my Corvettes. These Michelins are by far the best (also, the most expensive) tire. Dry handling is phenomenal. I did not rate wet traction as I avoid driving my 02 Corvette in the rain (I have four vehicles).

High marks highlight a smooth, refined driving experience, aligning with its Max Performance Summer focus on balanced dry and wet traction. A few scores in the 7-8 range still reflect strong overall satisfaction.

...The ride Comfort definitely improved, as well as handling and steering response...
I finally purchased the Michelin pilot super sport for my 06 Volvo S60R and what a difference these tires made. The ride Comfort definitely improved, as well as handling and steering response. Not to mention they're not even broken in yet. Outstanding tires, I definitely recommend them and worth every penny.

...They started off nearly silent on the way down. After 3k they're not as quiet, but still acceptable. They ride as comfortable as you can expect a lo profile tire to ride...
Just completed a 3,000 mile round trip journey to the tail of the dragon with these tires. This is the 4th set I've had on the car, and these are the best I've had on this car by far. Went on a rain run with 2 other guys. While they said they had some hairy moments, these tires inspired nothing but confidence. Grip for days on dry roads. They started off nearly silent on the way down. After 3k they're not as quiet, but still acceptable. They ride as comfortable as you can expect a lo profile tire to ride. Tread wear seems reasonable so far. Will definitely be buying another set of these in the future.

...Still love the car and tires, just don't recommend regular use in the rain.
These came on the ATS-V I ordered through the dealer this year. I raced the same model car down on Sonoma (CA) raceway last year and loved it. The tires are great in dry weather and do all I want. I'm writing this review because I saw comment that the tires don't hydroplane - I disagree. Yes, I live in WA state and we get rain regularly but today was a normal rain just at the edge of switching my wipers from intermittent to continual slow speed. Going the twenty miles from Burien to Federal Way I found the front end easily influenced by any standing water on the roadway. Still love the car and tires, just don't recommend regular use in the rain.

...For the much better price and 50% longer treadwear rating, these seem to be an excellent replacement option...
Just drove with these new tires that replaced my OEM Pilot Sport PS2s. I have to say that so far I actually am liking these more than the OEMs. They seem like a softer ride and quieter and drive more straight. The PS2s seemed to always want to grab an edge on the roadway and go with it. I was a little worried that the 103XL rating on the tires might make for a harsher ride on this luxury/sports car but if it did, I haven't noticed it at all. For the much better price and 50% longer treadwear rating, these seem to be an excellent replacement option. Will try to update once I've driven them for six months or so.

...The wear has been excellent as well. At about 7500 miles it appears the tread on the rears is maybe 50% or a little more, so with one or two track days if the rears last 20k miles I am way beyond happy. This is much more than any other max performance tires I have tried...
These replaced Pilot Sports (not even PS2) and they are absolutely a world apart. These tires clearly match the car's capabilities. In all ways they are better than the previous Pilot Sports: traction (unreal), responsiveness, straight line (very little tramlining), feedback, traction (worth mentioning twice). They are a little quieter and softer feeling than the PSs but with these kinds of tires that's a relative comparison. Over the last few thousand miles they have gotten a little bit louder than initially, but still not at all objectionable if you are used to this kind of car.
They've had one good track day on them as well and behaved beautifully although it was my first track day in over 5 years so I was not pushing beyond maybe 8/10s.
The wear has been excellent as well. At about 7500 miles it appears the tread on the rears is maybe 50% or a little more, so with one or two track days if the rears last 20k miles I am way beyond happy. This is much more than any other max performance tires I have tried.
Among the PS, PS2, various S02s, RE11 on 911s that I have tried, these tires are unquestionably, hands down the best. And they're one of the less expensive of those, maybe even *the* least expensive.
Total winning combination. No question it will be Super Sports for me from here on.
BTW my rear size is 285/30-18 which is not available. Instead, I went up 5 in aspect ratio to 285/35-18 and bumped the fronts up 10mm in width to partially compensate for the diameter difference. This works perfectly, and my suspension is lowered (OEM X74).

...Hands down these have been the best performing tires I've owned, and, they've lasted 25,000 miles of near perfect performance. They're finally getting feathered and a bit loud - with another 5-10,000 miles of tread left...
I've been driving Audi's and BMW's for 20 years, with high performance tires - spirited technical driving. Hands down these have been the best performing tires I've owned, and, they've lasted 25,000 miles of near perfect performance. They're finally getting feathered and a bit loud - with another 5-10,000 miles of tread left. I'm torn - buy another of the PSS, or move to the PSS4. Amazing tires that leave me very impressed with the Michellin engineers.
